This is not one of my favorite shots as it is slightly out of focus. However, it is one of my few showing the back of the warbler. When you look closely, you see the small yellow coloration sprinkled along its back.
I was pleasantly surprised by the number of comments back from my reunion e-mail yesterday. I appreciated each of them as most referenced similar feelings to what I tried to express. You just never know.... We met up with a couple Thursday night to go to the Texas play in Palo Duro Canyon. I grabbed a few quick photos of the canyon on the drive in. The panhandle has been blessed with a wet spring and the canyon was beautiful with all the green. If you have never been to this state gem, you are missing something. Growing up, I spent many an hour in this park creating great memories. The sky was clear and the temperatures hot for these photos. Thanks, Doug White https://jdwarchive.blogspot.com/
Life Update: Today is my last day as an employee of TAMU though the last paycheck was June 1. Tomorrow starts my full time retirement job - essentially no change since mid-May but now official. Given the past 6 weeks, I will not have trouble staying busy as Donnice and I have had little spare personal time. For the past several days, I have been helping our son and his wife move from Spring, TX to Fort Knox, KY. He is active duty ARMY for at least a year though he is still in Army Reserves. He just completed a 6 month tour (Jan - Jun) at Fort Knox without Lauren moving with him. He is excited about his job and as a bonus will get back into Blackhawk flight rotation. I drove his pickup with the trailer and flew back Monday. They are living on post in a house about as close to the gold vault as you can get. The photo of the depository was taken essentially from his front yard. It was an adventure getting everything moved but he wisely hired a lot of help packing and unpacking the vehicle...
A view of the Lighthouse from up close standing on the table. The vulture in the sky may have been foretelling of how my right hip felt by the time we got back to the car ! Thanks, Doug White https://jdwarchive.blogspot.com/
